You can use the Internet Explorer® Maintenance (IEM) tool to customize how the browser looks and functions for users using computers that are joined to a Windows® domain. IEM is an extension to the Group Policy Microsoft® Management Console (MMC) snap-in. You can use IEM to enforce your organization's Internet-related standards, and also to provide a common browser interface to your users.

To customize Windows Internet Explorer 8 before it is deployed to your users, or to administer Internet Explorer on multiple operating systems or in an environment that does not use the Active Directory directory service, use Internet Explorer Administration Kit 8.
